Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a construction machine such as a hydraulic excavator, and more particularly to a construction machine that drives a one-rod hydraulic cylinder and a turning hydraulic motor in a hydraulic closed circuit.
  • a hydraulic closed circuit that connects the hydraulic pump and hydraulic actuator in a closed circuit and directly controls the speed of the hydraulic actuator by controlling the flow rate of the hydraulic pump ( Hereinafter, a closed circuit) is being considered.
  • a closed circuit In this system, there is no pressure loss due to the conventional flow rate control valve, and the pump discharges only the required flow rate, so there is little energy loss. Also, the potential energy of the hydraulic actuator and the kinetic energy during deceleration can be regenerated. Therefore, further energy saving is possible.
  • Patent Document 1 discloses the prior art of a construction machine equipped with a closed circuit.
  • Patent Document 1 describes a configuration in which a hydraulic pump is connected to an actuator (boom cylinder, swing motor, etc.) in a closed circuit, and the operating speed of the actuator is controlled by swash plate control of the hydraulic pump.
  • actuator boom cylinder, swing motor, etc.

　特許文献１に記載の閉回路には、フラッシング弁が設けられている。フラッシング弁は、閉回路内の圧油の収支を保つため、閉回路のうち低圧側の流路をタンクに連通させる弁であり、低圧側の余剰油をタンクへ排出する機能を有する。 A flushing valve is provided in the closed circuit described in Patent Document 1. The flushing valve is a valve that connects the low-pressure side flow path of the closed circuit to the tank in order to maintain the balance of the pressure oil in the closed circuit, and has a function of discharging excess oil on the low-pressure side to the tank.
　特許文献１において、ブームシリンダを収縮する場合、ポンプはブームシリンダのヘッド側から作動油を吸入し、ロッド側へ吐出する。この時、フラッシング弁は低圧側となるブームシリンダのロッド側とタンクを接続するように切り換わる。その結果、ポンプが吐出した作動油がブームシリンダのロッド側に流入する一方で、片ロッドシリンダであるブームシリンダの受圧面積差分の作動油がフラッシング弁からタンクに排出される。 In Patent Document 1, when the boom cylinder is contracted, the pump sucks hydraulic oil from the head side of the boom cylinder and discharges it to the rod side. At this time, the flushing valve is switched to connect the rod side of the boom cylinder on the low pressure side to the tank. As a result, the hydraulic fluid discharged by the pump flows into the rod side of the boom cylinder, while the hydraulic fluid having the pressure receiving area difference of the boom cylinder, which is a one-rod cylinder, is discharged from the flushing valve to the tank.
　一方、旋回体を加速する場合、ポンプは旋回モータの一方の入出力側から作動油を吸入し、他方の入出力側へ吐出する。この時、フラッシング弁は低圧側となるポンプ吸入側をタンクに接続するように切り換わる。ここで、ポンプの吐出流量を小さくし、旋回体を減速させる場合、旋回体の慣性エネルギにより旋回モータは作動油を吐出し続けるため、ポンプ吸入側が高圧となり、フラッシング弁が閉回路の低圧側であるポンプ吐出側をタンクへ接続するよう切り換わる。これにより、旋回モータにブレーキ圧が作用し、旋回体は減速する。 On the other hand, when accelerating the revolving structure, the pump sucks hydraulic oil from one input/output side of the swing motor and discharges it to the other input/output side. At this time, the flushing valve is switched to connect the low pressure side pump suction side to the tank. Here, when the discharge flow rate of the pump is reduced and the revolving structure is decelerated, the swing motor continues to discharge the hydraulic oil due to the inertia energy of the revolving structure, so the pump suction side becomes high pressure and the flushing valve becomes low pressure in the closed circuit. Switch to connect one pump discharge side to the tank. As a result, brake pressure acts on the swing motor, and the swing structure decelerates.
特開２０１６－０１７６０２号公報JP, 2016-017602, A
　一般的な片ロッドシリンダの場合、ヘッド側とロッド側の受圧面積比はおよそ２：１であるため、片ロッドシリンダを駆動する閉回路（以下、シリンダ閉回路）では、ポンプが吐出した作動油のおよそ半分がフラッシング弁からタンクへ排出されることになる。従って、シリンダ閉回路においては、フラッシング弁の圧力損失を低減するために、フラッシング弁のサイズを大きくする必要がある。 In the case of a general one-rod cylinder, the pressure-receiving area ratio between the head side and the rod side is about 2:1. Therefore, in the closed circuit that drives the one-rod cylinder (hereinafter, cylinder closed circuit), the hydraulic oil discharged by the pump is used. About half of this will be drained from the flushing valve to the tank. Therefore, in the cylinder closed circuit, it is necessary to increase the size of the flushing valve in order to reduce the pressure loss of the flushing valve.
　一方、旋回モータには片ロッドシリンダのような受圧面積差がないため、旋回モータを駆動する閉回路（以下、旋回閉回路）において、フラッシング弁からタンクに排出される流量はシリンダ閉回路に比べ１／１０以下と少ない。ここで、コスト等の観点からシリンダ閉回路と旋回閉回路とで同じ形状のフラッシング弁を使用した場合、旋回閉回路におけるフラッシング弁の圧力損失が小さくなるため、旋回減速開始時にポンプ吸入側（低圧側）の圧力の立ち上がりが遅れることとなる。それにより、フラッシング弁が切り換わるタイミングが遅れ、ポンプ吸入側の圧力がリリーフ圧（ブレーキ圧）に達するまでに時間を要する。その結果、旋回減速応答性が低下し、操作性が悪化するという課題が生じる。 On the other hand, since the swing motor does not have the difference in pressure receiving area unlike the one-rod cylinder, the flow rate discharged from the flushing valve to the tank in the closed circuit that drives the swing motor (hereinafter, swing closed circuit) is higher than that in the cylinder closed circuit. Less than 1/10. Here, when the flushing valve of the same shape is used in the cylinder closed circuit and the swing closed circuit from the viewpoint of cost, etc., the pressure loss of the flushing valve in the swing closed circuit becomes small, so the pump suction side (low pressure The rise of the pressure on the side will be delayed. As a result, the switching timing of the flushing valve is delayed, and it takes time for the pressure on the pump suction side to reach the relief pressure (brake pressure). As a result, there is a problem that the turning deceleration response is deteriorated and the operability is deteriorated.
　本発明は、上記の課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、片ロッド式油圧シリンダおよび旋回油圧モータを駆動する油圧閉回路を搭載し、かつ旋回減速応答性が良好な建設機械を提供することにある。 The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a construction machine equipped with a hydraulic closed circuit for driving a one-rod hydraulic cylinder and a swing hydraulic motor, and having good swing deceleration response. To provide.
　上記目的を達成するために、本発明は、下部走行体と、前記下部走行体に旋回可能に取り付けられた上部旋回体と、前記上部旋回体に設けられた作業装置と、作動油を貯留するタンクと、前記作業装置を駆動する片ロッド式油圧シリンダと、前記上部旋回体を駆動する旋回用油圧モータと、前記作業装置および前記上部旋回体の動作を指示する操作装置と、両傾転ポンプからなる第１閉回路ポンプと、両傾転ポンプからなる第２閉回路ポンプと、前記第１閉回路ポンプと前記片ロッド式油圧シリンダとを閉回路状に接続するシリンダ閉回路と、前記第２閉回路ポンプと前記旋回用油圧モータとを閉回路状に接続する旋回閉回路と、前記シリンダ閉回路の低圧側の流路を前記タンクに連通させる第１フラッシング弁と、前記旋回閉回路の低圧側の流路を前記タンクに連通させる第２フラッシング弁と、前記第１閉回路ポンプと前記片ロッド式油圧シリンダとの連通と遮断とを切り換える第１切換弁と、前記第２閉回路ポンプと前記旋回用油圧モータとの連通と遮断とを切り換える第２切換弁と、前記操作装置から入力される操作信号に応じて、前記第１切換弁および前記第２切換弁の開閉、ならびに前記第１閉回路ポンプおよび前記第２閉回路ポンプの吐出流量を制御する建設機械において、前記第２フラッシング弁が全開したときの前記第２フラッシング弁から前記タンクまでの最小流路面積は、前記第１フラッシング弁が全開したときの前記第１フラッシング弁から前記タンクまでの最小流路面積よりも小さいものとする。 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention stores a lower traveling body, an upper revolving body rotatably attached to the lower traveling body, a work device provided on the upper revolving body, and hydraulic oil. A tank, a one-rod hydraulic cylinder that drives the working device, a turning hydraulic motor that drives the upper revolving structure, an operating device that directs the operation of the working device and the upper revolving structure, and a bilateral tilt pump.

　以上のように構成した本発明によれば、旋回減速開始時に、旋回閉回路用のフラッシング弁（第２フラッシング弁）を介してポンプ吸入側からタンクへ作動油が排出される際に、第２フラッシング弁で大きな圧力損失が発生することで、ポンプ吸入側の流路の圧力が速やかに上昇し、第２フラッシング弁が速やかに切り換わる。これにより、ポンプ吸入側の流路の圧力がリリーフ圧に達するまでの時間が短縮されるため、旋回減速応答性が向上し、良好な旋回操作性が得られる。 According to the present invention configured as described above, when the hydraulic oil is discharged from the pump suction side to the tank via the flushing valve for the swing closed circuit (second flushing valve) at the start of the swing deceleration, the second Since a large pressure loss occurs in the flushing valve, the pressure in the flow path on the pump suction side rises quickly, and the second flushing valve switches quickly. As a result, the time taken for the pressure in the flow path on the pump suction side to reach the relief pressure is shortened, so that the turning deceleration response is improved and good turning operability is obtained.

（本発明にかかわる構成）
　次に、本実施例におけるフラッシング弁の構造について説明する。
（フラッシング弁構造）
　図３にシリンダ閉回路Ｃ１用のフラッシング弁３１の内部構造の一例を示す。マニホールド３１ａには、流路３１ｂ，３１ｃ，３１ｄが形成されている。流路３１ｂ，３１ｃ，３１ｄには、図２における流路２１，２２、タンク３３がそれぞれ接続される。マニホールド３１ａ内には、流路３１ｈが形成されたスプール３１ｅと、シム３１ｇ１，３１ｇ２と、バネ３１ｆ１、バネ３１ｆ２とが配置されている。流路３１ｂ，３１ｃからバネ３１ｆ１，３１ｆ２がある油室へそれぞれ圧油が導かれると、油室の圧力の大小関係で、スプール３１ｅが左右のどちらかに移動する。例えば流路３１ｂの圧力が流路３１ｃより高い場合、バネ３１ｆ１のある油室が高圧になるため、スプール３１ｅは右へ移動する。スプール３１ｅが右へストローク量３１ｉ分移動することで、低圧側の流路３２ｃは流路３２ｈを介して流路３２ｄへと接続される。 The relief valves 37a and 37b are provided so as to connect the tank 33 and the flow paths 21 and 22. The relief valves 37a, 37b, 38a, 38b serve as a safety valve that opens when the pressure in the flow paths 21, 22, 24, 25 exceeds a preset pressure and discharges the hydraulic oil to the tank 33.
(Pump valve controller)
The pump valve control device 40 is connected to the boom lever 30a as the operation lever 30 and the swing lever 30b by a signal line, and is connected to the switching valves 23 and 26 and the regulators 11a and 12a of the closed circuit pumps 11 and 12 by a control signal line. ing. The pump valve control device 40 determines the discharge flow rate of the closed circuit pumps 11 and 12 based on the operation amounts of the boom lever 30a and the swing lever 30b, and outputs a control signal according to the discharge flow rate to the regulators 11a and 12a. Further, when the pump valve control device 40 detects that the boom lever 30a and the swing lever 30b are operated, the switching valves 23 and 26 are opened, and the hydraulic oil discharged by the closed circuit pumps 11 and 12 is transferred to the boom cylinder 1. Drive control of the boom cylinder 1 and the swing motor 7 is performed by causing the boom cylinder 1 to flow into the swing motor 7. The discharge directions of the hydraulic oil of the closed circuit pumps 11 and 12 are determined by the operation directions of the boom lever 30a and the swing lever 30b, respectively. In this embodiment, the pump valve control device 40 will be described as an example of a controller configured by an electric/electronic circuit, but the pump valve control device 40 may be configured by a hydraulic circuit.
(Structure related to the present invention)
Next, the structure of the flushing valve in this embodiment will be described.
(Flushing valve structure)
FIG. 3 shows an example of the internal structure of the flushing valve 31 for the cylinder closed circuit C1. Flow paths 31b, 31c, and 31d are formed in the manifold 31a. The flow paths 21 and 22 and the tank 33 in FIG. 2 are connected to the flow paths 31b, 31c, and 31d, respectively. Inside the manifold 31a, a spool 31e having a passage 31h formed therein, shims 31g1 and 31g2, a spring 31f1 and a spring 31f2 are arranged. When the pressure oil is introduced from the flow passages 31b and 31c to the oil chambers having the springs 31f1 and 31f2, the spool 31e moves to the left or right depending on the magnitude relationship of the pressure in the oil chambers. For example, when the pressure in the flow passage 31b is higher than that in the flow passage 31c, the oil chamber having the spring 31f1 has a high pressure, and the spool 31e moves to the right. When the spool 31e moves to the right by the stroke amount 31i, the low-pressure side passage 32c is connected to the passage 32d via the passage 32h.
　図４に旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２の内部構造の一例を示す。マニホールド３２ａには、流路３２ｂ，３２ｃ，３２ｄが形成されている。流路３２ｂ，３２ｃ，３２ｄには、図２における流路２４，２５、タンク３３がそれぞれ接続される。マニホールド３２ａ内には、流路３２ｈが形成されたスプール３２ｅと、シム３２ｇ１，３２ｇ２と、バネ３２ｆ１、バネ３２ｆ２とが配置されている。フラッシング弁３２は、図３のフラッシング弁３１と同様に動作する。図４において、スプール３２ｅの中立位置からの移動量をストローク量３２ｉとする。 FIG. 4 shows an example of the internal structure of the flushing valve 32 for the swing closed circuit C2. Flow paths 32b, 32c, and 32d are formed in the manifold 32a. The channels 32b, 32c, and 32d are connected to the channels 24 and 25 and the tank 33 in FIG. 2, respectively. Inside the manifold 32a, a spool 32e having a flow path 32h formed therein, shims 32g1 and 32g2, a spring 32f1 and a spring 32f2 are arranged. The flushing valve 32 operates similarly to the flushing valve 31 of FIG. In FIG. 4, the movement amount from the neutral position of the spool 32e is referred to as a stroke amount 32i.
　ここで、図４の旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２では、シリンダ閉回路Ｃ１用のフラッシング弁３１（図３に示す）より絞りを狭くするため、シム３２ｇ１，３２ｇ２の厚さＴ２を図３のシム３１ｇ１，３１ｇ２の厚さＴ１より大きくする。これにより、図４の流路３２ｂと流路３２ｃとの間に圧力差が生じた場合のスプール３２ｅのストローク量３２ｉが図３のストローク量３１ｉより小さくなるため、流路３２ｂまたは流路３２ｃと流路３２ｈとの間の最大開口面積が小さくなる。
（従来の旋回動作）
　次に、従来の油圧駆動装置で旋回モータ７駆動した場合の動作を図２を用いて説明する。ここで、従来の油圧駆動装置とは、図２に示す油圧駆動装置１０５において、旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２の構造をシリンダ閉回路Ｃ１用のフラッシング弁３１（図３に示す）と同一にしたものである。
（停止～レバー入力～旋回加速）
　操作者が旋回レバー３０ｂを中立から一定の操作量まで操作し、旋回モータ７の回転駆動を指令する入力を与えると、ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を信号線を介して受け取る。ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、受信した旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を元に、閉回路ポンプ１２を旋回モータ７に接続するために切換弁２６を開状態へと制御指令値を設定する。また、ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、閉回路ポンプ１２のポンプ吐出流量指令値を旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を応じた値に設定する。ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、切換弁２６と閉回路ポンプ１２のレギュレータ１２ａに制御信号線を介して制御指令値とポンプ吐出流量指令値を出力する。 In the flushing valve 32 for the swing closed circuit C2 of FIG. 4, the thickness T2 of the shims 32g1 and 32g2 is set to be smaller than that of the flushing valve 31 for the cylinder closed circuit C1 (shown in FIG. 3). It is made larger than the thickness T1 of the shims 31g1 and 31g2. As a result, the stroke amount 32i of the spool 32e when a pressure difference occurs between the flow passage 32b and the flow passage 32c in FIG. 4 becomes smaller than the stroke amount 31i in FIG. The maximum opening area with the flow path 32h becomes smaller.
(Conventional turning motion)
Next, the operation when the turning motor 7 is driven by the conventional hydraulic drive device will be described with reference to FIG. Here, in the conventional hydraulic drive system, in the hydraulic drive system 105 shown in FIG. 2, the structure of the flushing valve 32 for the swing closed circuit C2 is the same as the flushing valve 31 for the cylinder closed circuit C1 (shown in FIG. 3). It is the one.
(Stop-lever input-turn acceleration)
When the operator operates the turning lever 30b from neutral to a certain operation amount and gives an input for commanding the rotation drive of the turning motor 7, the pump valve control device 40 causes the pump valve control device 40 to output the operation amount of the turning lever 30b via a signal line. receive. The pump valve control device 40 sets the control command value to open the switching valve 26 in order to connect the closed circuit pump 12 to the swing motor 7 based on the received operation amount of the swing lever 30b. Further, the pump valve control device 40 sets the pump discharge flow rate command value of the closed circuit pump 12 to a value corresponding to the operation amount of the turning lever 30b. The pump valve control device 40 outputs a control command value and a pump discharge flow rate command value to the switching valve 26 and the regulator 12a of the closed circuit pump 12 via a control signal line.
　これにより、切換弁２６が開き、閉回路ポンプ１２が吐出した作動油は切換弁２６と流路２４を介して旋回モータ７の入出力ポート７ａへ流入し、旋回モータ７を駆動する。入出力ポート７ｂから流出した作動油は、流路２５と切換弁２６を介して閉回路ポンプ１２へ吸入される。 As a result, the switching valve 26 opens, and the hydraulic oil discharged by the closed circuit pump 12 flows into the input/output port 7a of the swing motor 7 via the switch valve 26 and the flow path 24, and drives the swing motor 7. The hydraulic oil flowing out from the input/output port 7b is sucked into the closed circuit pump 12 via the flow path 25 and the switching valve 26.
　この時、閉回路ポンプ１２が吐出した圧油は、旋回モータ７に接続されている上部旋回体１０２（図１に示す）の慣性体を加速させるため、閉回路ポンプ１２の作動油吐出側である流路２４の圧力が流路２５の圧力より高圧になる。フラッシング弁３２は、低圧側の流路２５とタンク３３を接続するように切り換わる。
（旋回中～レバー中立～旋回減速）
　操作者が旋回レバー３０ｂを一定の操作量から中立位置まで操作し、旋回モータ７の停止を指令する入力を与えると、ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、旋回レバー－３０ｂの操作量を信号線を介して受け取る。ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、受信した旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を元に、閉回路ポンプ１２を旋回モータ７に接続するために切換弁２６を閉状態へと制御指令値を設定する。また、ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、閉回路ポンプ１２のポンプ吐出流量指令値を旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を応じた値に設定する。旋回レバー３０ｂが中立の場合、ポンプ吐出流量指令値は０となる。ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、切換弁２６と閉回路ポンプ１２のレギュレータ１２ａに制御信号線を介して制御指令値とポンプ吐出流量指令値を出力する。 At this time, the pressure oil discharged from the closed circuit pump 12 accelerates the inertial body of the upper swing body 102 (shown in FIG. 1) connected to the swing motor 7, so that the hydraulic oil is discharged from the closed circuit pump 12 on the hydraulic oil discharge side. The pressure in a certain channel 24 becomes higher than the pressure in the channel 25. The flushing valve 32 is switched to connect the low pressure side flow path 25 and the tank 33.
(During turning-lever neutral-turn deceleration)
When the operator operates the turning lever 30b from a constant operation amount to a neutral position and gives an input for instructing the stop of the turning motor 7, the pump valve control device 40 causes the operation amount of the turning lever-30b to be transmitted via a signal line. To receive. The pump valve control device 40 sets the control command value to the closed state of the switching valve 26 in order to connect the closed circuit pump 12 to the swing motor 7 based on the received operation amount of the swing lever 30b. Further, the pump valve control device 40 sets the pump discharge flow rate command value of the closed circuit pump 12 to a value corresponding to the operation amount of the turning lever 30b. When the turning lever 30b is neutral, the pump discharge flow rate command value becomes zero. The pump valve control device 40 outputs a control command value and a pump discharge flow rate command value to the switching valve 26 and the regulator 12a of the closed circuit pump 12 via a control signal line.
　これにより、切換弁２６は閉じ、閉回路ポンプ１２は作動油の吐出を停止するが、旋回モータ７に接続されている上部旋回体１０２（図１に示す）の慣性力により、旋回モータ７は回転し続けるため、旋回モータ７は入出力ポート７ｂから作動油を流路２５へ吐出する。この時、フラッシング弁３２は、旋回開始時の切換え位置を保持しているため、流路２５とタンク３３を接続している。したがって、入出力ポート７ｂから流出した作動油は、流路２５とフラッシング弁３２を介してタンク３３へ排出される。 As a result, the switching valve 26 is closed and the closed circuit pump 12 stops the discharge of the hydraulic oil. However, due to the inertial force of the upper swing body 102 (shown in FIG. 1) connected to the swing motor 7, the swing motor 7 is Since the rotation motor 7 continues to rotate, the turning motor 7 discharges the hydraulic oil from the input/output port 7b to the flow path 25. At this time, the flushing valve 32 holds the switching position at the start of turning, and thus connects the flow path 25 and the tank 33. Therefore, the hydraulic oil flowing out from the input/output port 7b is discharged to the tank 33 via the flow path 25 and the flushing valve 32.
　この時の旋回閉回路Ｃ２内の状態について、図５を用いて説明する。操作者が旋回レバー３０ｂを一定の操作量から中立位置まで操作すると、それに合わせて、フラッシング弁３２に流れる作動油の流量が増加する。フラッシング弁３２の通過流量が増加すると、圧力損失によって流路２５の圧力が上昇する。一方で流路２４の圧力は、旋回モータ７の入出力ポート７ａが流路２４の作動油を吸入するため、低下していく。流路２４の圧力が流路２５の圧力を下回ると、フラッシング弁３２が切り換わり、流路２４とタンク３３を接続する。その後、旋回モータ７の入出力ポート７ｂから流出される作動油は流路２５に流れ、流路２５の圧力はさらに上昇する。流路２５の圧力が、リリーフ弁３８ｂのあらかじめ設定した設定圧力（以下、リリーフ圧）まで上昇すると、リリーフ弁３８ｂが開き、作動油はタンク３３へ排出される。流路２５の圧力が流路２４の圧力を超えてリリーフ圧に達すると、旋回モータ７の回転速度が減速し、一定時間後、旋回モータ７は停止する。
（本発明のフラッシング弁の場合）
　次に、本実施例における油圧駆動装置１０５で旋回モータ７駆動した場合の動作を図２を用いて説明する。
（停止～レバー入力～旋回加速）
　操作者が旋回レバー３０ｂを中立から一定の操作量まで操作した場合の旋回モータ７の挙動については、前述と同様なため、説明を省略する。
（旋回中～レバー中立～旋回減速）
　操作者が旋回レバー３０ｂを一定の操作量から中立位置まで操作し、旋回モータ７の停止を指令する入力を与えると、ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を信号線を介して受け取る。ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は受信した旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を元に、閉回路ポンプ１２を旋回モータ７に接続するために切換弁２６を閉状態へと制御指令値を設定する。また、ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、閉回路ポンプ１２のポンプ吐出流量指令値を旋回レバー３０ｂの操作量を応じた値に設定する。旋回レバー３０ｂが中立の場合、ポンプ吐出流量指令値は０となる。ポンプバルブ制御装置４０は、切換弁２６と閉回路ポンプ１２のレギュレータ１２ａに制御信号線を介して制御指令値とポンプ吐出流量指令値を出力する。 The state in the turning closed circuit C2 at this time will be described with reference to FIG. When the operator operates the turning lever 30b from a constant operation amount to the neutral position, the flow rate of the hydraulic oil flowing through the flushing valve 32 increases accordingly. When the flow rate passing through the flushing valve 32 increases, the pressure in the flow path 25 increases due to the pressure loss. On the other hand, the pressure in the flow path 24 decreases as the input/output port 7a of the turning motor 7 sucks the hydraulic oil in the flow path 24. When the pressure in the flow path 24 becomes lower than the pressure in the flow path 25, the flushing valve 32 switches to connect the flow path 24 and the tank 33. After that, the hydraulic oil flowing out from the input/output port 7b of the turning motor 7 flows into the flow path 25, and the pressure in the flow path 25 further rises. When the pressure in the flow path 25 rises to a preset pressure (hereinafter, relief pressure) of the relief valve 38b, the relief valve 38b opens and the hydraulic oil is discharged to the tank 33. When the pressure in the flow path 25 exceeds the pressure in the flow path 24 and reaches the relief pressure, the rotation speed of the swing motor 7 is reduced, and the swing motor 7 is stopped after a certain time.
(In the case of the flushing valve of the present invention)
Next, the operation when the turning motor 7 is driven by the hydraulic drive system 105 in this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
(Stop-lever input-turn acceleration)
The behavior of the turning motor 7 when the operator operates the turning lever 30b from a neutral position to a constant operation amount is the same as that described above, and thus the description thereof is omitted.
(During turning-lever neutral-turn deceleration)
When the operator operates the turning lever 30b from a constant operation amount to a neutral position and gives an input to command the stop of the turning motor 7, the pump valve control device 40 causes the pump lever control device 40 to output the operation amount of the turning lever 30b via a signal line. receive. The pump valve control device 40 sets the control command value to the closed state of the switching valve 26 in order to connect the closed circuit pump 12 to the swing motor 7 based on the received operation amount of the swing lever 30b. Further, the pump valve control device 40 sets the pump discharge flow rate command value of the closed circuit pump 12 to a value corresponding to the operation amount of the turning lever 30b. When the turning lever 30b is neutral, the pump discharge flow rate command value becomes zero. The pump valve control device 40 outputs a control command value and a pump discharge flow rate command value to the switching valve 26 and the regulator 12a of the closed circuit pump 12 via a control signal line.
　これにより、切換弁２６は閉じ、閉回路ポンプ１２は作動油の吐出を停止するが、旋回モータ７に接続されている上部旋回体１０２（図１に示す）の慣性体の持つ慣性力により、旋回モータ７は回転し続けるため、旋回モータ７は入出力ポート７ｂから作動油を流路２５へ吐出する。この時、フラッシング弁３２は旋回開始時の切換え位置を保持しているため、流路２５とタンク３３を接続している。したがって、入出力ポート７ｂから流出した作動油は、流路２５とフラッシング弁３２を介してタンク３３へ排出される。 As a result, the switching valve 26 is closed and the closed circuit pump 12 stops the discharge of the hydraulic oil. However, due to the inertial force of the inertial body of the upper swing body 102 (shown in FIG. 1) connected to the swing motor 7, Since the swing motor 7 continues to rotate, the swing motor 7 discharges the hydraulic oil from the input/output port 7b to the flow path 25. At this time, since the flushing valve 32 holds the switching position at the start of turning, the flow path 25 and the tank 33 are connected. Therefore, the hydraulic oil flowing out from the input/output port 7b is discharged to the tank 33 via the flow path 25 and the flushing valve 32.
　次に旋回閉回路Ｃ２内の状態について、図６を用いて説明する。操作者が旋回レバー３０ｂを一定の操作量から中立位置まで操作すると、それに合わせて、フラッシング弁３２の通過流量が増加する。 Next, the state inside the swing closed circuit C2 will be described with reference to FIG. When the operator operates the turning lever 30b from a constant operation amount to the neutral position, the flow rate of the flushing valve 32 increases accordingly.
　図４に示したフラッシング弁３２の構造は、前述した図３の構造と比べ、ストローク量３２ｉが小さく絞りが狭いため、フラッシング弁３２の通過流量の増加に対し、圧力損失による流路２５の圧力上昇が早い。その結果、フラッシング弁３２は、図３の構造を適用した場合と比べ、旋回レバー３０ｂの操作に対して早く切り換わる。 The structure of the flushing valve 32 shown in FIG. 4 has a smaller stroke amount 32i and a narrower throttle than the structure of FIG. 3 described above. Therefore, as the flow rate of the flushing valve 32 increases, the pressure in the flow path 25 due to pressure loss increases. The rise is fast. As a result, the flushing valve 32 switches faster with respect to the operation of the turning lever 30b than when the structure of FIG. 3 is applied.
　その後、図６に示す通り、流路２５が流路２４の圧力を超えてリリーフ圧に達すると、旋回モータ７の回転速度が減速し、一定時間後、停止する。
（発明の効果）
　図４に示したフラッシング弁３２の構造は、前述したフラッシング弁３１に適用した図３の構造に比べ、絞りが狭いため、図６に示すフラッシング弁３２の通過流量に対する流路２５の圧力上昇が、図５に示す従来例と比べ大きくなる。これにより、旋回レバー３０ｂの中立位置に戻す操作に対し、流路２５の圧力上昇のタイミングが従来例（図５に示す）に比べ早くなり、旋回モータ７の減速開始も早くなる。すなわち、本発明により、旋回モータ７の減速応答性が向上する。 After that, as shown in FIG. 6, when the flow path 25 exceeds the pressure in the flow path 24 and reaches the relief pressure, the rotation speed of the swing motor 7 is decelerated, and after a certain period of time, it is stopped.
(Effect of the invention)
The structure of the flushing valve 32 shown in FIG. 4 has a narrower throttle than the structure of FIG. 3 applied to the flushing valve 31 described above, so that the pressure rise in the flow path 25 with respect to the flow rate of the flushing valve 32 shown in FIG. , Which is larger than that of the conventional example shown in FIG. As a result, with respect to the operation of returning the turning lever 30b to the neutral position, the timing of pressure increase in the flow path 25 becomes earlier than in the conventional example (shown in FIG. 5), and the deceleration start of the turning motor 7 also becomes earlier. That is, the present invention improves the deceleration response of the swing motor 7.
　油圧ショベル１００において上部旋回体１０２の旋回動作は減速停止性能が重要となる。例えば、掘削した土砂をダンプトラックなどの車両に積み込む際、油圧ショベル１００は掘削後、旋回して、土をこぼさずにダンプトラックの上まで運ぶ必要があるが、この時、旋回減速応答、すなわちブレーキ応答性が悪いと、ダンプトラックの上で旋回を停止できず、旋回が行き過ぎたりすることになり、作業効率が低下する。 In the hydraulic excavator 100, the deceleration stop performance is important for the swing operation of the upper swing body 102. For example, when loading the excavated earth and sand into a vehicle such as a dump truck, the hydraulic excavator 100 needs to turn after excavation and carry the soil to the top of the dump truck without spilling. If the brake responsiveness is poor, the turning cannot be stopped on the dump truck, and the turning goes too far, resulting in a decrease in work efficiency.
　本発明により、旋回閉回路における旋回のブレーキ応答性が向上すると、ダンプトラックの上で旋回を停止することが容易になり、作業効率が改善する。 According to the present invention, if the brake response of the swing in the swing closed circuit is improved, it becomes easy to stop the swing on the dump truck, and the work efficiency is improved.
　本発明の第１の実施例では、下部走行体１０３と、下部走行体１０３に旋回可能に取り付けられた上部旋回体１０２と、上部旋回体１０２に設けられた作業装置１０４と、作動油を貯留するタンク３３と、作業装置１０４を駆動する片ロッド式油圧シリンダ１と、上部旋回体１０２を駆動する旋回用油圧モータ７と、作業装置１０４および上部旋回体１０２の動作を指示する操作装置３０と、両傾転ポンプからなる第１閉回路ポンプ１１と、両傾転ポンプからなる第２閉回路ポンプ１２と、第１閉回路ポンプ１１と片ロッド式油圧シリンダ１とを閉回路状に接続するシリンダ閉回路Ｃ１と、第２閉回路ポンプ１２と旋回用油圧モータ７とを閉回路状に接続する旋回閉回路Ｃ２と、シリンダ閉回路Ｃ１の低圧側の流路をタンク３３に連通させる第１フラッシング弁３１と、旋回閉回路Ｃ２の低圧側の流路をタンク３３に連通させる第２フラッシング弁３２と、第１閉回路ポンプ１１と片ロッド式油圧シリンダ１との連通と遮断とを切り換える第１切換弁２３と、第２閉回路ポンプ１２と旋回用油圧モータ７との連通と遮断とを切り換える第２切換弁２６と、操作装置３０から入力される操作信号に応じて、第１切換弁２３および第２切換弁２６の開閉、ならびに第１閉回路ポンプ１１および第２閉回路ポンプ１２の吐出流量を制御する建設機械１００において、第２フラッシング弁３２が全開したときの第２フラッシング弁３２からタンク３３までの最小流路面積は、第１フラッシング弁３１が全開したときの第１フラッシング弁３１からタンク３３までの最小流路面積よりも小さい。 In the first embodiment of the present invention, a lower traveling body 103, an upper revolving body 102 rotatably attached to the lower traveling body 103, a work device 104 provided on the upper revolving body 102, and hydraulic oil are stored. Tank 33, the one-rod hydraulic cylinder 1 that drives the working device 104, the swing hydraulic motor 7 that drives the upper swing body 102, and the operating device 30 that instructs the operation of the work device 104 and the upper swing body 102. , A first closed circuit pump 11 composed of both tilt pumps, a second closed circuit pump 12 composed of both tilt pumps, a first closed circuit pump 11 and a single rod hydraulic cylinder 1 are connected in a closed circuit form. A cylinder closed circuit C1, a swing closed circuit C2 that connects the second closed circuit pump 12 and the swing hydraulic motor 7 in the form of a closed circuit, and a low pressure side flow path of the cylinder closed circuit C1 that communicates with the tank 33. A flushing valve 31, a second flushing valve 32 that connects the low-pressure side flow path of the swing closed circuit C2 to the tank 33, and a connection between the first closed circuit pump 11 and the one-rod hydraulic cylinder 1 that connects and disconnects. The first switching valve 23, the second switching valve 26 for switching between the communication between the second closed circuit pump 12 and the turning hydraulic motor 7 and the shutoff, and the first switching valve according to the operation signal input from the operating device 30. In the construction machine 100 that controls the opening and closing of the second switching valve 26 and the discharge flow rate of the first closed circuit pump 11 and the second closed circuit pump 12, the second flushing valve 32 when the second flushing valve 32 is fully opened. The minimum flow passage area from the tank 33 to the tank 33 is smaller than the minimum flow passage area from the first flushing valve 31 to the tank 33 when the first flushing valve 31 is fully opened.
　以上のように構成された本実施例によれば、旋回減速開始時に、旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁（第２フラッシング弁）３２を介してポンプ吸入側からタンクへ作動油が排出される際に、第２フラッシング弁３２で大きな圧力損失が発生することで、ポンプ吸入側の流路の圧力が速やかに上昇し、第２フラッシング弁３２が速やかに切り換わる。これにより、ポンプ吸入側の流路の圧力がリリーフ圧に達するまでの時間が短縮されるため、旋回減速応答性が向上し、良好な旋回操作性が得られる。 According to the present embodiment configured as described above, when the hydraulic oil is discharged from the pump suction side to the tank via the flushing valve (second flushing valve) 32 for the swing closed circuit C2 at the start of the swing deceleration. In addition, since a large pressure loss occurs in the second flushing valve 32, the pressure in the flow path on the pump suction side rapidly rises, and the second flushing valve 32 switches quickly. As a result, the time taken for the pressure in the flow path on the pump suction side to reach the relief pressure is shortened, so that the turning deceleration response is improved and good turning operability is obtained.
　また、第１フラッシング弁３１は、第１マニホールド３１ａと、第１マニホールド３１ａ内に配置された第１スプール３１ｅと、第１マニホールド３１ａ内に配置され、第１スプール３１ｅを付勢する第１バネ３１ｆ１，３１ｆ２と、第１スプール３１ｅと第１バネ３１ｆ１，３１ｆ２との間に配置された第１シム３１ｇ１，３１ｇ２とを有し、第２フラッシング弁３２は、第２マニホールド３２ａと、第２マニホールド３２ａ内に配置された第２スプール３２ｅと、第２マニホールド３２ａ内に配置され、第２スプール３２ｅを付勢する第２バネ３２ｆ１，３２ｆ２と、第２スプール３２ｅと第２バネ３２ｆ１，３２ｆ２との間に配置された第２シム３２ｇ１，３２ｇ２とを有し、第２シム３２ｇ１，３２ｇ２のスプール軸方向の厚さＴ２は、第１シム３１ｇ１，３１ｇ２のスプール軸方向の厚さＴ１よりも大きい。これにより、鋳型で成型されるマニホールド３２ａの形状を変更することなく、フラッシング弁３２の最大開口面積を小さくすることができるため、フラッシング弁３２のコストを抑えることが可能となる。 The first flushing valve 31 includes a first manifold 31a, a first spool 31e arranged in the first manifold 31a, and a first spring arranged in the first manifold 31a and biasing the first spool 31e. 31f1 and 31f2 and first shims 31g1 and 31g2 arranged between the first spool 31e and the first springs 31f1 and 31f2, and the second flushing valve 32 includes a second manifold 32a and a second manifold 32a. A second spool 32e arranged in the second 32a, a second spring 32f1, 32f2 arranged in the second manifold 32a and biasing the second spool 32e, a second spool 32e and the second springs 32f1, 32f2. The second shims 32g1 and 32g2 are arranged between the second shims 32g1 and 32g2, and the thickness T2 of the second shims 32g1 and 32g2 in the spool axial direction is greater than the thickness T1 of the first shims 31g1 and 31g2 in the spool axial direction. As a result, the maximum opening area of the flushing valve 32 can be reduced without changing the shape of the manifold 32a molded by the mold, so that the cost of the flushing valve 32 can be suppressed.
　図７に本発明の第２の実施例に係る旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２の内部構造を示す。 FIG. 7 shows the internal structure of the flushing valve 32 for the swing closed circuit C2 according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
　図７において、第１の実施例に係る旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２（図４に示す）との相違点は、シム３２ｇ１，３２ｇ２の厚さＴ２がシリンダ閉回路Ｃ１用のフラッシング弁３１（図２に示す）のシム３１ｇ１，３１ｇ２の厚さＴ１と等しく、スプール３２ｅに形成された流路３２ｈのスプール軸方向の幅Ｗ２がフラッシング弁３１の流路３１ｈの幅Ｗ１よりも小さい点である。 7, the difference from the flushing valve 32 (shown in FIG. 4) for the swing closed circuit C2 according to the first embodiment is that the thickness T2 of the shims 32g1 and 32g2 is the flushing valve 31 for the cylinder closed circuit C1. It is equal to the thickness T1 of the shims 31g1 and 31g2 (shown in FIG. 2), and the width W2 of the flow passage 32h formed in the spool 32e in the spool axial direction is smaller than the width W1 of the flow passage 31h of the flushing valve 31. is there.
　このように、本実施例では、第１フラッシング弁３１は、第１マニホールド３１ａと、第１マニホールド３１ａ内に配置された第１スプール３１ｅとを有し、第２フラッシング弁３２は、第２マニホールド３２ａと、第２マニホールド３２ａ内に配置された第２スプール３２ｅとを有し、第１スプール３１ｅの中間部には、シリンダ閉回路Ｃ１の低圧側の流路をタンク３３に連通させるための第１タンク接続流路３１ｈが形成されており、第２スプール３２ｅの中間部には、旋回閉回路Ｃ２の低圧側の流路をタンク３３に連通させるための第２タンク接続流路３２ｈが形成されており、第２タンク接続流路３２ｈのスプール軸方向の幅Ｗ２は、第１タンク接続流路３１ｈのスプール軸方向の幅Ｗ１よりも小さい。 As described above, in the present embodiment, the first flushing valve 31 has the first manifold 31a and the first spool 31e arranged in the first manifold 31a, and the second flushing valve 32 is the second manifold. 32a and a second spool 32e arranged in the second manifold 32a, and a first spool 31e has a middle part for communicating the low pressure side flow path of the cylinder closed circuit C1 with the tank 33. A 1-tank connection flow path 31h is formed, and a second tank connection flow path 32h for connecting the low-pressure side flow path of the swirl closed circuit C2 to the tank 33 is formed in the middle of the second spool 32e. Therefore, the width W2 of the second tank connection channel 32h in the spool axis direction is smaller than the width W1 of the first tank connection channel 31h in the spool axis direction.
　以上のように構成された本実施例においても、フラッシング弁３２が全開したときのフラッシング弁３２からタンク３３までの最小流路面積が、フラッシング弁３１が全開したときのフラッシング弁３１からタンク３３までの最小流路面積よりも小さくなるため、第１の実施例と同様に、旋回減速応答性が向上し、良好な旋回操作性が得られる。 Also in the present embodiment configured as described above, the minimum flow passage area from the flushing valve 32 to the tank 33 when the flushing valve 32 is fully opened is from the flushing valve 31 to the tank 33 when the flushing valve 31 is fully opened. Since the area is smaller than the minimum flow path area, the turning deceleration response is improved and good turning operability is obtained, as in the first embodiment.
　図８に本発明の第３の実施例に係る油圧駆動装置１０５を示す。 FIG. 8 shows a hydraulic drive system 105 according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
　図８において、第１の実施例（図２に示す）との相違点は、旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２の構造をシリンダ閉回路Ｃ１用のフラッシング弁３１（図３に示す）と同一にし、フラッシング弁３１とタンク３３とを接続する流路に絞り４１を設けた点である。ここで、絞り４１の開口面積は、第１の実施例に係る旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁３２（図４に示す）における流路３２ｂまたは流路３２ｃと流路３２ｈとの間の最大開口面積と同程度である。これにより、フラッシング弁３２が全開したときのフラッシング弁３２からタンク３３までの最小流路面積は、第１の実施例と同様に、フラッシング弁３１が全開したときのフラッシング弁３１からタンク３３までの最小流路面積よりも小さくなる。 In FIG. 8, the difference from the first embodiment (shown in FIG. 2) is that the structure of the flushing valve 32 for the swing closed circuit C2 is the same as that of the flushing valve 31 for the cylinder closed circuit C1 (shown in FIG. 3). That is, the throttle 41 is provided in the flow path connecting the flushing valve 31 and the tank 33. Here, the opening area of the throttle 41 is the maximum opening between the flow passage 32b or the flow passage 32c and the flow passage 32h in the flushing valve 32 (shown in FIG. 4) for the swing closed circuit C2 according to the first embodiment. It is about the same as the area. Accordingly, the minimum flow passage area from the flushing valve 32 to the tank 33 when the flushing valve 32 is fully opened is the same as that of the first embodiment from the flushing valve 31 to the tank 33 when the flushing valve 31 is fully opened. It becomes smaller than the minimum flow path area.
　このように、本実施例に係る油圧ショベル１００は、第２フラッシング弁３２とタンク３３とを接続する流路上に設けられた絞り４１を更に備え、第２フラッシング弁３２は、第１フラッシング弁３１と同一の構造を有する。 As described above, the hydraulic excavator 100 according to the present embodiment further includes the throttle 41 provided on the flow path that connects the second flushing valve 32 and the tank 33, and the second flushing valve 32 includes the first flushing valve 31. It has the same structure as.
　以上のように構成された本実施例においても、フラッシング弁３２が全開したときのフラッシング弁３２からタンク３３までの最小流路面積がフラッシング弁３１が全開したときのフラッシング弁３１からタンク３３までの最小流路面積よりも小さくなるため、第１の実施例と同様に、旋回減速応答性が向上し、良好な旋回操作性が得られる。 Also in the present embodiment configured as described above, the minimum flow passage area from the flushing valve 32 to the tank 33 when the flushing valve 32 is fully opened is from the flushing valve 31 to the tank 33 when the flushing valve 31 is fully opened. Since the area is smaller than the minimum flow path area, the turning deceleration response is improved and good turning operability is obtained, as in the first embodiment.
　さらに、旋回閉回路Ｃ２用のフラッシング弁（第２フラッシング弁３２）とシリンダ閉回路Ｃ１用のフラッシング弁（第１フラッシング弁３１）とが同一仕様となるため、コストを低減することが可能となる。 Further, since the flushing valve for the swirl closed circuit C2 (second flushing valve 32) and the flushing valve for the cylinder closed circuit C1 (first flushing valve 31) have the same specifications, the cost can be reduced. ..
